Outside Zhou Catering Group…
Inside the luxurious black and white Bentley…
Bang!
“B*stard!”
He Zhentian suddenly hit the steering wheel.
He didn’t understand why he failed every time he targeted Zhou Catering Group.
He had failed to get the bid for the Tianhao Group factory project!
…..
He had failed to compete for the Binjiang Entertainment City food center project!
He had tried to rope in Su Chen. However, he had not only failed, but he had also been poisoned!
Now, he was Zhao Shijie’s dog. He had asked Zhao Shijie to use the Health Department to deal with Zhou Catering Group. However, that failed as well!
Wu Yiqi sat in the front passenger seat and looked at the furious He Zhentian. His heart was pounding.
He gathered his courage and said, “President He, don’t worry. Young Master Zhao must have other ways to deal with them.”
As soon as he finished speaking…
Slap!
He Zhentian slapped him across the face.
The light in Wu Yiqi’s eyes dimmed. He clutched his face and asked, “President He, why did you do that?”
He Zhentian gritted his teeth and looked at him coldly. “Why did 1 do that? If it wasn’t for your timely news, would I have gone and embarrassed myself ar Zhou Catering Group?”
On the way to the Zhou Catering Group building, Wu Yiqi had threatened him by using his brother s name. He wanted to get a share of the Zhou family’s profits.
Now that Wu Yihua had been apprehended, He Zhentian had no more respect for Wu Yiqi.
Wu Yiqi lowered his head and gritted his teeth in humiliation.
He had no choice but to cling to He Zhentian.
When He Zhentian saw Wu Yi’s “docile” behavior, his anger dissipated slightly.
“However, you are right about one thing!”
“I want to see Young Master Zhao Shijie again. 1 need to ask him what’s going on!”
Very quickly…
At the Imperial Spring View Hotel…
In a luxurious private room…
He Zhentian stared at Zhao Shijie furiously.
“Young Master Zhao, 1 want to know why this happened.”
“How did Zhou Catering Group manage to turn the tables when it was seized by the Health Department?”
Slap!
A slap landed on He Zhenrian’s face.
He Zhentian’s face quickly became red and swollen.
Zhao Shijie’s sharp gaze swept across He Zhentian.
In an instant. He Zhentian”s entire body turned cold.
Only then did he realize that he had no right to question Zhao Shijie.
Zhao Shijie looked at him coldly and said indifferently, “I don’t like it when people speak to me in this tone. If you do it again…”
At this point, he glanced at the Iron Fist Feng Dao.
Feng Dao lightly swung his fist!
Bang!
The chair beside him instantly shattered into pieces.
He Zhentian trembled, and he quickly lowered his head. “Young Master Zhao, I’m sorry. 1 was too stressed. I deserve the worst!”
Zhao Shijie didn’t argue with He Zhentian. Instead, he dialed a number.
He questioned the person on the other line.
Soon, he hung up.
His eagle eyes were alight with anger.
“I’ve found out what happened. It was Li Wandao from rhe Health Department. For some reason, he suddenly attacked Tan Saicheng!”
Feng Dao was puzzled. “Young master, Li Wandao is Li Xiaolai’s nephew. He should know that Tan Saicheng is a member of the Zhao family. Why did he attack him? Isn’t he afraid of causing a conflict between rhe Zhao family and the Li family?”
Zhao Shijie’s expression was cold. “I’ll call Li Chunran now and see what he has to say!”
Immediately after, Zhao Shijie called Li Chunran.
The call went through.
“Li Chunran, it s Zhao Shijie. Tan Saicheng is under my family. Don’t you know that? What is Li Wandao doing?”
Li Chunran was more than ten years older than Zhao Shijie and was of rhe same generation as his father, Zhao Chongling.
However, Zhao Shijie had no respect for him.
Li Chunran’s expression was sour.
He said angrily, “Zhao Shijie, I’m of rhe same generation as your father. You are not treating me with respect. You questioned me the moment the call went through. What gives you the guts to do that?”
Zhao Shijie smiled coldly. “Li Chunran, I’ll respect your old man and call you Mr. Li. However, if you don’t show me respect, 1 have no reason ro do the same!”
“Let me ask you again. What is Li Wandao doing? Is he targeting our family? Or is it that the Li family has also taken a fancy ro the Zhou family?”
Li Chunran was furious. He sneered and said, “I don’t know what you mean. However, I will say this: You don’t want to lay a hand on Zhou Catering Group!”
Zhao Shijie’s eyes were cold. “Li Chunran, do you want a war to occur between your family and mine?”
His tone was cold and full of threats.
However, Li Chunran said firmly, “If you insist on thinking that way, the Li family will always be happy to oblige!”
Zhao Shijie frowned.
Today, Li Chunran seemed to be more unyielding and different from his usual self.
“Good! Let’s wait and see!”
Zhao Shijie could only say something ruthless back.
He hung up the phone.
At the Li family villa…
Li Chunran frowned slightly and looked beside him.
Li Xiaolai and Li Wandao were sitting there.
“Dad! Why did you start a fight and offend Zhao Shijie? If things go wrong, their family might really start a war with us!” Li Chunran looked worried.
Li Xiaolai looked at Li Chunran, and a trace of disappointment flashed in his heart.
The batrle hadn’t even started, but his son was already afraid.
The Li family really deserved their fall from the position as rhe richest family!
“Didn’t 1 tell you?” asked Li Xiaolai. “We must treat Su Chen with the highest courtesy. Now, anything concerning Zhou Catering Group is Su Chen’s business, and it s also our business!”
“Because of your attitude last time, Su Chen was already very disappointed in our family. This is the best opportunity to make up for that and strengthen our friendship with him.11
“Even if we have to go to war with the Zhao family because of this, it’s worth it!”
Li Chunran’s lips twitched, but he didn’t say anything.
He really wanted to ask if Su Chen was worth all this.
…..
However, when he thought of how his father slapped him last time, he decided to shut up.
Then, Li Wandao said, “Cousin, if Su Chen’s martial cultivation is really that high, I’ll back you up. loo%l*
“Although we are the second richest family in Bin Cheng, and although I’m the leader of the Health Department, in the face of certain experts, we re nothing!”
“Su Chen is likely one of these special experts. We must devote ourselves to maintaining a good friendship with this person. He is the key ro our family’s rise to power again.”
Li Xiaolai looked at Li Wandao with admiration.
“Li Wandao, you’re right!” Li Xiaolai echoed.
His nephew was much better than his son in terms of foresight and courage!
Although Li Chunran didn’t understand his father and cousin’s conversation, he tried to keep it in mind.
In the luxurious private room of the Imperial Spring View Hotel-
Crash!
Zhao Shijie overturned a table filled with food!
“This piece of trash, Li Chunran, actually dared to shout at me!”
Zhao Shijie’s gaze was vicious, and his anger did not dissipate.
Li Chunran’s attitude just now had truly provoked him.
He Zhentian asked carefully, “Young Master Zhao, rhe Li family is protecting Zhou Catering Group now. What should we do?”
Zhao Shijie looked at him coldly and said, “What? Do you think I have no other tricks up my sleeve?”
He Zhentian hurriedly bowed and said, “Of course not! You surely do!”
Zhao Shijie finally calmed down a little. “So, the Health Department route isn’t working!”
“There are still many ways to destroy rhe Zhou family!”
“If we can’t do it through official means, then we’ll go with under-the-table methods!”
Zhao Shijie’s eyes were crazed..
